DETECTIVE 1
A thief stole a computer and printer from an office on campus Saturday at 10:00. Sandy was in the parking
lot across from the office, standing next to her car. She only saw him for a few minutes, but she was sure she
could identify him. The police officers were happy to have a witness, but they weren’t sure how much she
saw from the parking lot. Sandy was positive she could answer the detective’s questions.

Yes. “The Little Red Hen.” (Who will help me plant the wheat? I won’t.)
In “The Little Red Hen,” the hen is asking if any of the other animals would be willing to help
her. They are not willing until she has made the bread. Then they are willing to eat it. In “The
Three Little Pigs,” the wolf states what he is going to do and what the result of that action will
be (he predicts that the pigs’ houses will fall down).

My brother doesn’t like coconut. Can you believe it? I never met anyone else in my life who
felt this way. It seems very strange to me. What is there about coconut that he doesn’t like? It
seems very inoffensive to me. Perhaps he says he doesn’t like it in order to get attention.
When he refuses to eat a coconut cookie or cake with coconut frosting, he gets a lot of
attention and people try to figure out why he dislikes it so much. Of course, my brother
always denies this, but I think that is the real reason.
When I first moved here 10 years ago, it got cold in December and January. In fact, the first
two years, we had a freeze which killed all of my outdoor plants. As a result, I decided not
to try to grow anything else. Now, however, it stays pretty warm all winter. In fact, just the
other day I wore/was wearing shorts and a T-shirt. The sun was shining, and I felt as if it
were summer! I couldn’t resist calling my family and friends back home to brag about the good
weather here.
Last week my brother-in-law took me to the desert about 45 minutes away, and we stayed
there a couple of days. One of the reasons why we went there was to shoot rifles just for fun.
He set up some cans and bottles for targets and shot at them. He also let me shoot his rifle. It
was the first time I shot a gun, and I felt very scared. Even though I can see how much he
enjoys target practice, I think gun ownership should be limited.

I first learned about this English program from a teacher at my school back home. I was
surprised that it wasn’t my English teacher, but rather my history teacher. He had attended
this program when he was a university student. He told me how good this school was and
what an interesting city this was. However, he warned me that he had been a student here
many years ago and that sometimes things change. I have noticed some changes, but
basically, I have found this to be a good program with friendly teachers. I also enjoy living
in this city.
One of the most important decisions in life is deciding on a job. I first came to this country
without knowing any English. Therefore, I had a hard time finding a job. I applied everywhere,
but no one called me for a job. For that reason, I attended college and took some classes that
helped me to have a good career. Now I have almost gotten my AA degree. After I had
attended college for one year, I applied at a shoe store, and they hired me right away. My
plan is to transfer to the university; after that, I can easily find a better job.
My son has become a “snackaholic.” There was a time when he ate three big meals a day.
Now, he only wants to snack. Popcorn, cookies, candy, soft drinks: these are his favorite foods.
He seems to want to eat constantly, but only sweets or chips. What has happened to my good
little eater? Could it be that he is following the example of his parents? I guess we better
look at our own eating habits!

Clothes can tell a lot about a person, but we can’t judge a person by the clothes he/she wears.
In my country, a lot of people judge a person by what name brand of clothes he/she wears. A
lot of times, people talk about what clothes their friends wear or say some people wear
inappropriate clothes to high school.
Now I’m in California where it is warm all through the year and where there are many
beautiful beaches. When you take a walk on the beach, you see people wearing baggy
clothes–at least two sizes larger than what they should be wearing. These people are surfers.
Personally, I believe that the reason surfers wear baggy clothes is they always have wetsuits
in order to be ready for waves.
We have some important decisions to make in our lives. We can’t run away from them and we
need to choose what is best for us. The three most important decisions for me are where to
study, choice of job, and who to marry. All of them are important, but perhaps marriage is the
most important one. We have to choose whether we will marry or not. If we don’t marry, it
means that we will not have a family–including our own children. The decision about who
we’ll marry is difficult to make also. In conclusion, we can’t predict what will happen and
how our lives will be influenced by those decisions, but we have to decide even if it turns
out bad.
There are a lot of important things in a lifetime. The most important thing for a young
person is to get a good education. A good education helps you to get a good job later on. You
need a good job to earn enough money to live comfortably. It is not as important to have a
really high-paying job as it is to be happy in your choice of occupation. Also, everyone needs
to settle down by having a family because it is important in order for civilization to continue.
However, being happy with oneself is truly the most important thing in life.

I have lived in Poland most of my life, and there is a place that I remember very well. It is a
short, dark street with buildings on both sides. The buildings are very tall–at least four
floors. There is an entrance but no exit from these streets. The windows look dirty, but
shadow and window coverings make them look dark. Most people keep them clean and nice. I
think about these places often because I spent most of my life there with many good friends.
Explorers have lived in almost all times and in almost every country. There are many
interesting books written and lots of adventure movies made about them. We can see that an
explorer’s life is not just interesting, but it is also dangerous. In my opinion, explorers should
be strong and brave, smart and experienced, and also have a sense of adventure.
All the governments of democratic nations make laws according to the necessity of the social
life of the country at the moment the law is enacted. After many years, some of those laws
become inadequate, and there is an attempt by citizens to change them. This is what is
happening in the United States now regarding gun control. In my opinion, a law that controls
guns is necessary because it reduces slaughters, gun accidents, and violence in general.
Dreams–this interesting topic has been on people’s minds for a long time. Everybody has the
ability to dream in one way or another. Some people even say that dreaming is a sign that we
are sleeping the perfect sleep. Throughout time, it has always been a top priority to figure out
the nature of dreams. Although our knowledge of dreams is still in a primitive stage, we have
already managed to divide them into categories. The majority of people will agree that
nightmares, daydreams, and visions are the most common types of dreams.

A GROUP OF FRIENDS
I have a friend named John who is a student. John has two brothers. His older brother, Tad, now lives in San
Francisco. It is a beautiful city, as you know. I met them (the two brothers) when we were all working at the
mall after school. John and Tad’s younger brother, Paul, lives in Austin, Texas. He is a swinging, single guy
with two girlfriends. One girlfriend is a singer, and she sings every night with her twin sister. The other
girlfriend lives in an apartment with her pet dog. It is a huge German shepherd. This dog likes to go camping
with them, so they take it with them every chance they get. It is pretty much a “people” dog. By that, I mean
it doesn’t like to be left alone. Now that you know a little bit about John, his two brothers, and me, read on to
find out more about us.
NUISANCE
Once upon a time, there was a tomcat named Nuisance. He/It lived with a wonderful woman named Lisa, but

Nuisance thought of things he/it could do to annoy her. One day Lisa’s friend brought over a beautiful
hanging plant. She/they hung it in her bedroom window. Then the two friends went out to dinner. When they
returned, they found the plant on the floor. “What happened to it?” asked her friend, but Lisa knew and you
do too, don’t you? That Nuisance! Another time, he/it ran away and was gone for three months. Lisa asked the
people in the apartment building to help search for him/it. They all agreed to help, but no one found
Nuisance. Just when she/they had given up hope, he/it turned up. Nuisance spent his/its whole life doing
things like this to Lisa, but she always forgave him/it.

REVIEWS
A Walk in the Clouds is an interesting/exciting movie starring Keanu Reeves. The movie takes place after
World War II in the wine country of California. The characters are surrounded by the beautiful scenery.
Keanu’s character is married to a woman he met right before going overseas. They don’t really know each
other, nor are they interested in the same things. He is a traveling salesman, and on his first trip after
returning home he meets a confusing/fascinating woman on the train. Every time he runs into her, he gets
into trouble. She is embarrassed to have caused him so many problems, but he notices that she is very
frightened/depressed, and finally she tells him that she is pregnant and unmarried. This is an especially
humiliating position to be in at this time because her parents are very strict and will be shocked by this
news. She is very depressed and doesn’t know what to do. Keanu’s character offers to pose as her husband
who will then have a fight with her and leave the confused/humiliated woman. Her family, however, will
believe she is married and that the husband is a disgusting person. They will feel sorry for her. Before the
two can carry out this somewhat confusing plan, they start to really fall in love. Watch the movie to find out
the exciting ending!

“He Stopped Loving Her Today”
He said, “I’ll love you ‘till I die.”
She told him, “ You’ll forget in time.”
As the years went slowly by,
She still preyed upon his mind.
He stopped loving her today.
They placed a wreath upon his door.
And soon they’ll carry him away,
He stopped loving her today.
He kept her picture on his wall
And went half crazy now and then;
But he still loved her through it all,
Hoping she’d come back again.
You know, she came to see him one last
time,
Oh, and we all wondered if she would.
And it kept running through my mind
This time, he’s over her for good.
Kept some letters by his bed,
Dated nineteen-sixty-two;
He had underlined in red
Every single “I love you.”
I went to see him just today.
Oh but I didn’t see no tears.
All dressed up to go ’way.
First time I’d seen him smile in years.

SONGS
“The Erie Canal”
I’ve got a mule, her name is Sal,
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal.
She’s a good ol’ worker and a good ol’ pal,
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal.
We’ve hauled some barges in our day,
Filled with lumber, coal and hay.
And we know every inch of the way
From Albany to Buffalo.
REFRAIN
Low bridge, everybody down!
Low bridge, for we’re coming to a town!
And you’ll always know your neighbor,
You’ll always know your pal,
If you’ve ever navigated on the Erie Canal.
We better get along on our way, ol’ gal,
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal.
‘Cause you bet your life
I’d never part with Sal,
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal.
Get up there, mule, here comes a lock
We’ll make Rome about six o’clock,
One more trip and back we’ll go,
Right back home to Buffalo.

“Red River Valley”
From this valley they say you are going,
We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile,
For they say you are taking the sunshine,
That brightens our pathway awhile.
REFRAIN
Come and sit by my side if you love me,
Do not hasten to bid me adieu,
But remember the Red River Valley
And the girl that has loved you so true.
Won’t you think of the valley you’re leaving?
Oh, how lonely, how sad it will be,
Oh think of the fond heart you’re breaking,
And the grief you are causing me.

From this valley they say you are going,
When you go, may your darling go, too?
Would you leave her behind unprotected?
When she loves no other but you?

I have promised you, darling, that never
Will a word from my lips cause you pain;
And my life, it will be yours forever
If you only will love me again.
Worksheet 94
SONG
“Amie”
I can see why you think you belong to me;
I never tried to make you think or let you see
One thing for yourself.
But now you’re off with someone else and I’m alone.
You see, I thought that I might keep you for my own.
REPEAT
Amie, what ‘choo wanna do?
I think I could stay with you
For awhile, maybe longer, if I do.
Don’t you think the time was right for us to find
All them things we thought weren’t proper
Could be right in time.
And, can you see
Which way we should turn together or alone.
I can’t never tell what’s right or what is wrong.
(It’d take too long to see)
REPEAT
Well, now it’s come to what you want; you’ve had your way.
And all the things you thought before just faded into gray.
And can you see
A-That I don’t know if it’s you or if it’s me.
If it’s one of us, I’m sure we both will see
(Oh, won’t you look at me and tell me)
REPEAT
I just keep falling in and out of love with you,
Falling in and out of love with you,
Don’t know what I’m gonna do,
I keep falling in and out of love with you.
